WPA-Preshared Key This setting only takes effect under“WPA-PSK

or“WPA2-PSK” mode. Besides, the key should be

at least 8 characters and 63 characters at maximum.

This Passphrase (also called a shared secret) that

must be entered in both the wireless access point and

the WPA clients (computers). The WPA pre-shared

key should be a random sequence of either keyboard

characters (upper and lowercase letters, numbers, and

punctuation). You have to enter the same Passphrase

or Hexadecimal key into both your access points and

computers but the length requirement is changed.

The more random your WPA pre-shared key, the

safer it is to use.
